My 2024.9 update is out, and swiping is back on the now-playing screen!
Swipe between the artwork page and the new chapters/info combo page. It fits WAY more info on screen than the old app, and it feels so good!
Also:
- Swipe left to download an episode
- New iOS 18 dark and color-tinted icons
- Download All Episodes option in playlist menu
- Fixed Episode Limit enforcement
The continuous-play fix is now live in the App Store!
(Nerd explanation: streaming required handling of more “failed” playback states. In some cases, the MP3 decoder could send a “failed” status right after playback reached the end of a file, which could’ve caused a race condition to trigger the failure handling [stop] while it was processing the end-of-file event. The fix was to eliminate the race, and for bonus resilience, also ignore failure messages after receiving an end-of-file message.)
Version 2024.8.2 is now live in the App Store:
STREAMING IS BACK!
Also in this update:
- Smart Speed now displays its current speed
- Podcasts can now have different sort order for Unplayed and All modes
- Other minor fixes
In today's update (2024.8.1):
- Manage Storage
- Bug fixes, including 24-hour-auto-delete mode
- Seek back/forward buttons on the miniplayer
And by popular demand, the third button on the bottom of now-playing is now the Sleep Timer! (Sleep-timer custom intervals are also better now.)
The "i" button is now in the upper-right. (Tapping the artwork also still brings up info mode.)
I hear your feedback and am experimenting with other options for mode-switching the playback screen. Stay tuned.
Update 2024.8 is now in the App Store!
Fixes:
- A bug that sometimes reset episode order in playlists
- A bug that could lose playback progress
- Launching on visionOS
- Siri suggestions for playback
- Siri support for playlists and podcasts by name, e.g. "Play my Queue playlist on Overcast" (now works from HomePods, too)
Not much change, I really like this setup.
